Default This is how I roll.

After downloading the last motoGP race, grabbed a monitor cable (aka bought one and got my job to reimburse me...) and hooked it up to my LCD... the download quality was good and it looked fucking great! This is an awesome solution since I don't get the speed channel...

Clever...unfortunately I have neither an lcd tv or a laptop. Eurosport coverage ftw though!!
On the last couple races theyve been covering the ad breaks from eurosport with the commentary from bbc so it doesn't miss a beat.

Yeah dude I got the full vid from that thing you told me about back in the day on ... full eurosport vids... all race, no commercials... shit is awesome.

And that race was incredible for the first 2/3... lots of excitement... then mostly people just hanging on.

That's what I do too. Hook it up to my 32" Sony LCD. Much nicer! Clear picture too.

for some reason things are slightly stretched out for me... I think it's cause the video card I have in my laptop sucks... should have gone with the Nvida for like $200 more...

I'll be getting a new desktop when I get back to the states though

That's how I've been rolling for a while now...



You'll note that my HTPC is turned around backwards cause my wireless keyboard and mouse (yes, both of them) took a shit... I should get the replacements in the mail next week.
